A Quiet Place Part II (2020) – Transcript

Following the events at home, the Abbott family now face the terrors of the outside world. Forced to venture into the unknown, they realize the creatures that hunt by sound are not the only threats lurking beyond the sand path.
A Quiet Place Part II (2021)

Over a year before the first film’s events, the Abbott family attends son Marcus’ baseball game. Mid-game, bewildered spectators look skyward as a flaming object hurtles towards the Earth. As people exit the park and attempt to drive away, the town is beset and attacked by hostile alien creatures possessing armored skin and extraordinary speed and strength. The blind creatures have a hypersensitive hearing to target and track victims.

In the present, the aliens have killed much of the Earth’s population, including Lee Abbott, who sacrificed himself to save his surviving family – wife Evelyn, deaf teen daughter Regan, adolescent son Marcus, and a newborn son. Regan discovered that high-frequency audio feedback can incapacitate the creatures, devising a makeshift method of transmitting the noise from her cochlear implant hearing aid through a microphone and speaker, allowing Evelyn to fatally shoot the creatures when they are vulnerable.

With their isolated home now destroyed, the family searches for other survivors. They bring Regan’s kit to fend off the creatures. Upon entering a fenced-off area, Marcus steps into a bear trap. His subsequent screams attract a creature. Using the hearing aid and a shotgun, Regan and Evelyn kill it, free Marcus, then flee into an abandoned steel foundry as another creature arrives. They stumble upon Emmett, a reclusive friend of Lee’s, who reluctantly takes them to his bunker under the foundry. Marcus and Regan discover a radio station signal that continuously plays the song, “Beyond the Sea.” Regan determines it is a clue meant to lead survivors to the nearby islands. She theorizes that if she can reach the radio tower located there, the hearing aid’s high-frequency noise can be transmitted to other survivors who can weaponize the signal against the creatures. After telling Marcus her plan, she secretly ventures out alone to find the island.

Discovering Regan is gone, Evelyn implores Emmett to bring her back. Emmett finds Regan and wants them to return to the foundry. Appealing to his sense of duty, Regan convinces Emmett to help complete her mission. Meanwhile, Evelyn leaves Marcus and her infant at the foundry to gather needed medical supplies and equipment. During her absence, Marcus explores the foundry and discovers the corpse of Emmett’s wife. Startled, he knocks over some objects, alerting a nearby creature. Marcus narrowly gets into the bunker, but accidentally locks himself and the baby inside.

At a marina, Emmett and Regan search for a boat. When feral humans living there ambush them, Emmett deliberately creates noise and attracts two creatures that slaughter the deranged inhabitants. When one creature drowns, Emmett realizes the aliens are unable to swim. Regan secures a small boat and the two reach the island where a small colony of survivors is living a relatively normal existence. The colony leader reveals that when the government discovered the creatures were unable to swim, the National Guard moved as many people as possible to the islands.

Evelyn returns to the factory. She distracts the creature and frees her children from the air-tight bunker. The three continue hiding inside the bunker as the creature prowls the foundry.

A creature that boarded a yacht at the marina has drifted to the island and immediately begins attacking the colonists. The colony leader, Emmett, and Regan jump into a car and lead the creature to the radio station. The creature kills the colony leader while Emmett and Regan escape into the station.

The creature attacks and is about to kill Emmett. Regan transmits the high frequency through the room’s speakers, incapacitating the creature. She impales its exposed head with a metal rod, killing it and saving Emmett. Simultaneously, at the foundry, the creature has discovered the bunker. It attacks Evelyn, but before it can kill her, Marcus picks up Regan’s transmission and plays it through his portable radio, incapacitating the alien. Marcus shoots it dead with Evelyn’s revolver. Regan leaves her hearing aid connected to the radio station’s microphone, allowing anyone receiving the frequency to weaponize it.

We have breaking news, it happened just a few moments ago apparently…

It’s okay, honey. It’s okay.

It’s okay.

It’s okay.

It’s okay.

Go!

You can’t stay.

I don’t know why you came all the way up here. But you can’t stay.

Up?

There is not enough food…

…water, there is not enough of anything.

How do you know we traveled up?

There is nothing I can do. You won’t survive.

Show me your face.

I can’t help you.

Please, I can’t help you.

Emmett?

Emmett?

Please…

Breathe baby.

How does it work?

It’s three feet of concrete.

That must be right above us to hear.

What’s this? Some kind of…

…some kind of feedback from the microphone?

It just works. I don’t know…

I’ve never seen one dead before.

How is he?

He’s…

I didn’t reach the bone.

But that wrap won’t last.

I’m sorry.

Of what?

The boys.

I assume.

That day…

And Nora?

Eleven weeks ago.

She was sick.

We held out as long as we could in the house.

But the pain didn’t.

Just when she started screaming…

we had to come here.

It was smart.

It wasn’t enough.

Can I ask you a question?

When you saw the flame, night after night, did you know it was him?

Yes.

And did you ever think to come for us?

No.

The people that are left…

…what they have become…

…you don’t know, do you?

I knew.

They are not the kind of people worth saving.

♪ Somewhere ♪

♪ beyond the sea ♪

What is it?

What is it?

Music.

♪ Stands on golden sand and watching ♪

It’s a…

Beyond the Sea.

Have you heard this?

Ah. Yes.

No. Dad would’ve heard this.

It’s the same song that has been playing over and over the last four months.

You’re lying!

My Dad used the radio every day!

What she’s saying?

She thinks he would have heard it.

Who?

Lee.

It’s the valley.

It’s the valley, I tried the radio, from our house too. But…

We never heard anything until we got up here.

Your dad was never gonna make it work.

You’re nothing like him!

Does this mean that there are more people?

I don’t know, baby. I don’t…

No!

There is nothing left.

I told you, there is nothing left.

I want you gone tomorrow.

It’s not a song.

On the radio.

Beyond The Sea… Right?

It’s not a song…

It’s a signal.

They’re telling us where to look.

I looked up the radio station.

…where the song is coming from.

It’s an island!

I can follow the train tracks…

It’s not even one day.

Then I can find a boat.

You can’t do this.

If I can find the song. Where it’s coming from…

I can use this… to change this… into this!

Mom, will never… let you go.

I can save them.

I can save us.

I’ll tell her.

Mom… I’ll tell her.

Please don’t do this!

I need to try.

Why?

Because Dad would.

And look what happened to him.

KEEP LISTENING

You have to find her for me.

She’s gonna get help, and I need you to go and find her for me, bring her back to me.

Alright, listen to me.

Please, Emmett, I am begging you!

No, Evelyn!

I am begging you!

We were friends, Emmett, please.

Lee is gone.

Now he’s gone.

It’s a shame, because if he was here, he’d look you right in the eye, and he’d tell you that his little girl is absolutely the kind of person worth saving.

So please go, find her.

And bring her back to me.

Alright, listen to me!

We stay here until they’re gone, and then we go.

You understood?

You can’t hear?

You can’t hear, shit!

I’ll take you home, we’ll wait here, until they are gone.

Goddammit!

Enunciate… Remember?

I’m…

…taking you…

…back.

They heard…

…the shot, okay?

No!

You can’t do this!

Help me.

Enough! Please, enough!

I’m taking you home.

What home?

You said…your wife…

Hey, don’t.

Do not talk about my wife.

You said… that you could not do enough.

Now you can.

I found a boat.

Don’t go.

I will be right back.

A matter of hours.

But the baby, I don’t know how…

I showed you how to do it.

Stay calm.

You have everything you need.

Everything.

Please…

Look…

If I don’t go…

Soon you’ll be in a lot of pain.

And I won’t know…

… I won’t lose you too.

Breathe…

I’ll be right back.

♪ You make me happy ♪

♪ When skies are Grey ♪

♪ You’ll never know, dear ♪

♪ How much I love you ♪

♪ So please don’t take ♪

♪ My sunshine away ♪

I’ll be right back.

It’s okay.

It’s okay.

Hey, look at me!

Hey!

Baby! Marcus!

Marcus!

Marcus, wake up!

Oh.

Thank you.

You heard the song?

Figured it out?

She did.

I thought she was…

…figured it out.

Not sure anyone here can actually believe it.

The most people had finally given up hope.

In a long time.

How long?

That day.

We got here the same way as you.

We were in this city.

When we heard the hurricane sirens.

Once they knew, they couldn’t swim.

The National Guard were told to start loading people on to boats.

Any boat that they could find.

So as soon as people saw the first one got out safe, everyone just started pushing forward.

That’s when they started screaming.

They had 12 boats lined up on the dock that day.

Only two got out.

Anyway, you’re here now.

A new day.

And where are you coming from?

Ah, just over the Appalachian Ridge.

And how long did it take?

Just under two days.

That’s determination!

It’s necessity.

To get out?

No.

To give in.

He said he will do it.

Yes.

He said yes.

I wanted to say…

I’m sorry.

I doubted you.

I was wrong.

And you were right.

I am nothing like him.

You are.

Get inside!

Get inside!

Get inside!

Get inside!

They are everywhere!

Go!

Stay down!

Stay down!

Hey! The doors’ locked, you got a key?

Where is it?

We went too fast. What if we lost it?

Give me the key.

Jesus Christ, it went back.

My family.

No, alright, listen to me.

I have to get back to my family.
